Sherman Foundation adds to scholarship fund IIy Jonathan Itosenbnum Director, Jewish Education The Jewish Federation has been given an additional $10,000 from the Nate H. Sherman Foundation for the Beatrice find Nate H. Sherman Scholarship Fund for qualified Jewish college students in Omnhn. Kurita Wnrshawsky, president of the Sherman Foundation, stated in the grant letter, "the . . . $10,000 is to be used for the Scholarship Fund in accordance with my conversation with Joe'Rice. My father, Nate H. Sherman, was committed to aiding qualified college students ..." Mr. Sherman was o native Omahan who founded the Midas Muffler Shop chain and was a leader in Jewish philanthropies in the United States and Israel until his death in 1980. Pr. Martin Wolf, president of the Bureau of Jewish Education, expressed the gratitude of his agency for this substantial con. trihution from the Sherman Foundation.
"Over the lust five years, the cost of university education has risen dramatically while lit the same time government funding sources — both loans and grant)1 — have generally remained static or declined. Therefore, this additional contribution fronrthe Nate H. Sherman Foundation represents a vitally needed infusion of support for college students who will be receiving their education in coming years," Dr. Wolf, a professional educator himself, stated that the costs of out-state undergraduate education and almost all post' graduate programs have now made it impossible for young people to "work their way through school." Middle class families have been most dramatically affected by these trends and additional funds are still needed, he stated. Those wishing to establish new funds or to contribute to the Beatrice and Nate H. Sherman Scholarship Fund may contact the executive vice president of t|ie Jewish Federation of Omaha at 334-8200.

ADL/CRC Law Committee hears Vard Johnson By Jean Ann Kruplnsky AaM**t U ite AOL-CKC A m u r
T h e A D L / C R C Law Committee had Bute Senator Vard Johntott ss their guest speaker at the December meeting, announced lisa Lewis and Bob YafTe, Co-Chairmen. Senator Johnson spoke on the collapse of the Commonwealth Savings in Lincoln, and the possible repercussions of this on the state of Nebraska. While the state did not guarantee deposits, Senator Johnson said he fears depositors can
present a tort claim against the state citing negligence. "The Legislature will have to examine the issue carefully to determine if any state officials' actions warrant impeachment," Senator Johnson said. Senator Johnson said he felt the issue of the Christian Schools in Nebraska is not resolvable unless one side yields. "Nebraska, unlike some of the Eastern seaboard states, does require its teachers to be certified.
Seven men are now in jail because they won't conform to this law. The penalty for being a martyr is that you go to jail," Senator Johnson said. Senator Johnson said the Legislature is weary of the issue. "I am afraid they may throw in the towel," Senator J o h n s o n added. " T h i s would be a mistake." Senator Peter Hotgland was also invited to attend the noon luncheon, but last minute business prevented his appearance.

Deferred giving to the Jewish community By Alan Goodman Federation Controller Deferred Riving is both a fast growing and generally accepted of making (tignifirant charitable contributions to support the longterm financial needs of our Omahn Jewish Community. There ore many reowns for it* wide acceptance including the fact that the donor receives an immediate tax deduction for the transfer of property to the Omaha Jewish Federation while the donor, or his family, retains certain rights to ute the property, or income from the property, far extended periods of time. Deferred charitable contributions are based upon the concept that any property interest con be broken into two segments. They are, the income segment which is the right to receive the income that the property generates, and the re-

Values can l>t" assigned to both the income interest (dividend of $0,000 per year) and the principal interest ($100,000), and if cither are disposed of by way of a charitable contribution, it will generate substantial tax deductions in the year of the transfer. Several of the specific methods that are available for deferred giving include: 1. Charitable remainder trust. Under the terms of a charitable remainder annuity trust, a donor can. transfer income property to the Federation, reserving an annuity for life, or for a term of years, or for the joint life of the donor and a Bpou«e. At the same time the donor con, in the current year, deduct the present value of the remainder interest that will eventually pass to the Federatioh. 2. Charitable remainder unitrust.* Under the terms of a charitable remainder unitrust, a donor may transfer property to the Federation while retaining an annual income for himself (and others) for up to 20 years of not less than t)% of the fair market value of the assets transferred to the Fed"'-"eTalion' * *"" - '• .').

She brings experience to the job, having worked in California for Jerry Brown and Diane Feinstein as well as Cranston. She said it was through her contacts with the Cranston organization in California that she got her post in Iowa.

"Cranston's just great," she said. "He's the most accessible candidate I've ever worked for. He's friendly and interested in people and has a great sense of humor. Voters don't feel intimidated by him or shy about asking him questions. "He'ii ulso a very good friend of the Jewish community and a strong backer of Israel. He enjoys the Bupport of national Jewish leaders." Ms. ljcvy received personal congratulations from Cranston on the Newsweek story when he was in Omaha recently for a convention of Nebraska county officials. Ms. Levy hasn't let her Newsweek notoriety go to her head, but does enjoy her fan mail, especially one letter which she proudly shows visitors: "Dear Ms. Levy," wrote an anonymous Texan, "Have just read Ncwsweek's article telling of your effort on behalf of Senator Cranston. Hope you have much success and that the Senator carries the state. "The article mentioned that you placed a down coat on lay-away. The enclosed is to , be applied to the coat, and nothing else." Stapled to the typewritten note was a $50 hill. If Cranston captures the Democratic nomination, Ms. Levy would like to return to California and assist in his campaign. She soys she may eventually go to law school, and rules out nothing else in her future plans except the presidency itself, which is forbidden to her as a naturalized citizen. Ms. Levy urges Cranston supporters to contact her at Cranston Headquarters at 203 Stutsman St. in Council Bluffs.

Passover 1984 The J e w i s h Press Committee has come up with a novel idea for our upcoming Passover issue. The idea is to provide an expandable theme under the umbrella of The Changing Jewish Family and the Celebration of Passover. Keeping the theme flexible should permit the active participation of all those in the Jewish community who yearn to write or draw. In fact, we are asking the community to create the editorial content of the issue. We are seeking essays from young children through college age on the subject: How does it feel to be a Jewish child in a Jewish family? We are seeking posters from children and adults having to do with Passover. Also, we would like a number of stories dealing with the recollections of Passover written by adults as well as children. As time goes on, we may be able to solicit a committee of judges and establish a system of prizes, but this decision will await future meetings of the Jewish Press Committee. Meanwhile, don't hold back. If you have an idea for a story that you would like to write, call the Press office and discuss the idea with Judith Marburg or me. Furthermore, if you have an idea but don't feel up to doing it yourself, let us know "so that we can help develop the thought. In addition, we would like to have stories about the changing Jewish family with respect to the shrinking number of children in the family. If there is a bachelor out there, we want to know his plans for marriage and the family. Ditto for the bachelorette. If there is a couple out there without plans for children, we'd like to talk with you. If you came from a family of many children, or if you currently are a youngster with brothers and sisters, your s.tory may be of interest. At this point, we are in the process of soliciting interest and names. If there is interest on your part, or if you can suggest the names of Omahans who may be good subjects, please let us know. It may be difficult to think of I'assover^with snow on the ground and plunging Arctic temperatures, but it may help. So, forget the winter chill and look forward with us to Passover and-the special issue of the Jewish Press. Come aboard, the welcome mat is out.

Germany and Israel HAIFA - Toward the end of January Helmut Kohl, Chancellor of West Germany, will pay • formal state visit to Israel. He is the W o n d German head of tUte to do so, the firet being Willy Brandt in 1973. Konrad Adenauer and Ludwig Erhard were not in office when they came to Israel. Kohl's vi*it had originally been scheduled for August but was pottponed at the last moment when Menahem Begin resigned There are some observers here who believe that the proposed visit wo* the last straw, on tbp of everything else, which impelled Begin to resign. H*.could not see himself shaking hand* with the German Chancellor, and listening to an Israel military band playing the German* anthem. Though his attitude toward Germany had been proper throughout his term of office, many here still recall that Begin and his colleagues bad in January, 1952, taken to the streets and literally besieged the Knesset in a vain attempt to stave off approval of the Reparations agreement. Two year* ago he had, in an intemperate moment, accused Kohl's predecessor, Helmut Schmidt, of arrogance and impertinence, against a background of what appeared to be a Qerman swing toward the Arabs and away from IsraeL Helmut Kohl will now be received by a new Premier in Israel. No matter what the official agenda, the atmosphere will be thick with issues, problems, suspicions and fears. Kohl has acknowledged that he will be travelling with very heavy luggage; "Each of us has modem German history in his baggage." What is apt to be on the agenda? There will undoubtedly be a frank confrontation on the negotiations between Germany and Saudi Arabia for the sale of several hundred German Leopard tanks to the desert kingdom. Thes* are offensive weapons which can some day show up on Israel's' borders. Israel it also concerned by growing Arab influence within Germany, It is claimed that Kuwait has bought a 10 percent interest in the Volkswagen company and already has sub-
stantial holdings in Germany's third largest bank, the Commerzbank. Other major German firms said to be falling into Arab financial dutches are Siemens, Thyssen, Bayer and other large banks. The world's third largest maker of construction machinery, the IBH company of Mainz, records that 18 percent of its stock is owned by Saudi Arabia. All these and other names and figures do not constitute a "take over" but the trend is alarming. Corporate holdings do not hove to be dominating to provide far reaching influence. Explanation that the Arabs are looking only for safe and profitable investments for their oil profit*, and seeking the technical know-how of the companies they are involved in, is not convincing. The idea of thousands of tentacles of an Arab financial octopus slowly but gradually encircling key Industries U not a pleasant one. Arab attempts to penetrate Germany on another front, the cultural, have not been so successful. In April, 1983, the German Oriental Institute played host at Hamburg to a dialogue with Arab scholars and diplomat*. In this cose, the Arab presentation did not confine itself to promoting cultural relations with Europe, but embarked on a vicious attack against Israel. Because they overshot the mark, the Arabs failed and the meeting was marked off as a failure. They will try again. T h e n i» one aspect of Germany's role in the Middle B u t which is almost unknown abroad. Islam constitutes tht second largest religion in Germany, after Christianity. Moslem mosques are everywhere becoming a feature of the landscape to cater to the religious needs of more than a million and a half Moslems who today live there. One indication of this influence is to be found in the fact that in recent years some 1500 German Christians have converted to Islam. Helmut Kohl and Yitzhak Shamir'and their entourages will certainly hove much to talk about.
Christmas is the time for Aliya By Dr. Irving Grecnberg President, National Jewish Resource Center As the needs of Israel and of Diaspora Jewry have grown in recent years, lhe claim has been, voiced that the wellbeing of both are in conflict. Some critic* have charged that too much of the fund* mined are going to Israel, thus neglecting American Jewry'* internal life. A leading Reform rabbi wrote that the upbuilding of American Jewry makes Israel a secondary in' fluence. The United Stairs is the country where his ' spiritual life will flower and he reject* the calls for Aliyo. I Interestingly: because, (heir chief spiritual trader* are in America and their communities are flourishing, certain right-wing Orthodox circles and an element in I^ibavitcli hove also suggested that religious holiness in (he United States is at a higher level than in Israel,) Conversely, a »ignificant group of philanthropic Jews has complained that the rising percentage of Federntion/UJA money being allocated to domestic Jewish institution* in hurting Israel. And a leading Orthodox rabbi who went on Aliya staled thai American Jewry in dying (but that i u funeral in marked by a plethora of dinners and ceremonies which mask it* decay). A recent study by Professor* Arnold Dashcfsky and Bernnrd I .azarewiu of Bar Han University dealt with American olirn In Israel and the determinants of their behavior. The research makes clear the positive reciprocal relationship between Israel and Diaspora. The finding give lie to those who would Mt up simple dichotomies between the interest* of Israel and American Jewry. Despite all the talk of the decline of Zionism, the study Known that American Aliya to Israel ha* intensified in recent decade*. The 19G1 Israel census showed 3550 U n born people a& permanent citizens of Israel — this number, after 100 years of Zionist immigration and thirteen year* of statehood. The 1072 census showed that 16,105 people of U.S. origin were permanent citizen* of Israel — an in_credibk'jn?rea»e ofAH%JIUMUL decade /admittedly from a low Imsc num!>er>. The main stimulant, of course, was ihe extraordinary upsurge of Jewish loyotty and feeling. Holocaust consciousness, and pride in Israel after the Six Day War. This upsurge of Jewish feeling was also reflected in the great intensified! ion of Jewish institutional and cultural life in America — more giving, more Jewish education, more Jewish studies on campus, more chavurot. a doubling of day school enrollment, etc. As the euphoria, of Ihe Six Day War was followed by the post-Yom Kippur War depression, Aliya fell off. Still, by I!I77, there were 19,540 Americans permanently in Israel — i.e., the overrall number* continue to grow. The direct cause of I his increased Aliya. as the Dashefskyljitarewitz analysis showed, is the strengthening of American Jewish life. Who were ihe olim? What was their Jewish background? Compared to American Jews, who did not go on Aliya, they were twice fls likely to have American-born parents. They were one-third more likely to be college graduates. Historically, higher education and second- or third-generation status leads to l e u religion. Yet the olim were three time* more likely to prefer Orthodox Judaism than other American
Jew*: twenty-eight percent (or one-third of all olim) were Onhudox, compared to 11% (one-ninth) of Orthodox Jew* in the general American Jewish population. (On the other hand, this statistic shows thoi 72% of the olim were nonOrthodox Jew* ~ a statistic which should shatter the standard Israeli assumption that only the Orthodox come on Aliya and that religious pluralism is not needed to attract olim.)The olim were seven limes more likely to have day *chool education f29'.« v. 4% American Jewish average); three-nndone-hulf times more likely to attend synagogue weekly (29% v. 4 r t); one-third more likely to be college graduates U2% v. 33%). Ill short, the more Jewish education, the more Jewish observance, the more likely Aliya. Kevin Anich's research on olim showed that when people had a heavier investment in their Jewish rather than their American identity, they were motivated to go to a society where Jewish identification it permitted maximum expression, Lazarewiu reported that dissatisfaction with the qua! ity of Jewish life in America grew a* their Jewish achievement)! and expectation* went up. Fifty-four percent reported having a special problem living in the United States at Christmas time when Chriilion symbols flood the airwaves and shopping spaces. It is time for a moratorium on shlilat ha-Gotah (negation of Diaspora) a* a motivator of Aliya and for pulling down Israel to justify American Jewish existence.

Have you heard about the most recent male occupation to be'invaded by us women? Private detective work .>.' eme&.'Wben you think about it, why-oot? It should be a natural for a woman to figure out where some goniff has stashed his booty. After all, isn't it a woman who can find the lost gloves for her kids, or tbe elusive bank statement for her husband? Certainly we're natural detectives. • • . And what about that business of sitting quietly In a car and waiting for some bad guy* to perform . . . th* «}£* call -. that "surveillance". Well let me tell you, in all modesty,' that I or any of my colleagues could handle any kind of a stake-out. Do you have any idea how long an average mother can sit up waiting for that darn kid to drive into the garage? I mean while trying not to hear the sirens and or tornado warning* etc., etc. (Certain ethnic groups, which shall remain namelesi, can watch the late, late show without >'awning til 3 n.m. under such conditions.) As far as an experienced detective recognizing some criminal whose entire physical appearance has been changed — big deal. Did you ever greet a teenager who comes home with the latest punk haircut, dangling earring, torn jeans, over-tired sweatshirt and eye make up that glows in the dark? It could be your own flesh and blood, but only a mother would recognize the fact. I don't find it surprising that women are now in the private eye business. The professionals say that females notice little thing* men over-took. Doggone right we do. And the divorce lawyer* of the world are rich for just such trail*! Yes, we're very observant. (There are isolated times when that isn't true of course, but one can't isee every potential fender dentcr.) I mean, NOBODY is perfect. The simple fact of the matter is women, particularly wives and mothers, hove some mechaninm which allows ui to »ee everything we (shouldn't, hear conversation* not inennt for our earn and cause u* to often say something .better left unsaid.

Prohibition is gone, but organized crime was horn with it, is still with us. There will be a national age limit on the purchase of any alcoholic beverages. Some sobering thoughts on the subject.

President Al Bergman asked for names to be presented to a board for honoring former great all-time Jewish athletes from this area. So far the list includes IXJU Weiner, Lea Burkenroad, Cowboy Sadofsky, Millard Segal, Bogie, Al Bergman (not chosen by himself) and Sam Kaufman. Your correspondent would include Al Handler, Leo Konecky, a marvelous basketball player, and Bill Wintroub. Art Grossman read a letter from Allan Greene honoring our own Mollie Delman as Citizen of the Year. We love you, Mollie. President Bergman introduced vice president Norm Wohlner, who presented our guest speaker, Rabbi Drazen of Beth El. The rabbi was born in St. Louis, went to high school in Detroit, to college at Columbia and the Jewish Theological Seminary, served as student rabbi in Alabama, on to Minneapolis, then to us. His subject was Hanukkah, what it means, and how do we reconcile its proximity to Christmas. As we know, Hanukkah is a rededication of the Temple by the Macabees. One version is that it was a war against the outsiders, the Greeks. The rabbi went on to explain how.we answer our Christian friends who ask us when is our Christmas? Before explaining our religion, the answer, to begin with; is always that we don't have a Christmas. A very interesting and educational discourse by the rabbi.
